First published in 1995, The Nordstrom Way is a classic guide to great customer service. This new book replaces The Nordstrom Way with an even more practical guide to becoming the “Nordstrom” of your industry. Designed for customer service managers and trainers, as well as business owners, it’s an invaluable resource for designing your own programs and initiatives. The authors not only explain the principles of the world’s best customer service company, they also show you how to implement them in your own organization. The Nordstrom Way to Customer Service Excellence will help your business make customers its number one concern, and help make your business number one in your industry.

Average Rating: 
Rating: - great teambuilder
we purchased this book for everyone in our office - in hopes that each person would gain one tidbit of information to better serve our customers. it sparked a great conversation and opened up several areas that we could improve on. it helped our staff feel like a part of the decision making process because it wasn't us...the owners.... telling them that there was a need for improvement.
plus - i keep hearing the staff discuss the book - so i think it was a great activity for everyone to read.
Rating:  - Insist on good service! You're paying for it!
Every business or organization that claims to have (or value) good customer service should implement a customer service class based on the 'Nordstrom Way'.

Rating: - Great stories of the best Cust. Service around
I was very excited to read this book after enjoying Spector's book on Amazon.com. The author did not disapoint and I enjoyed this book much more than his last!
The best part of the book are the examples used. In addition to Nordstrom, he has also incorporated examples from another large company, and a few small and midsize companies as well. No matter what industry you are in, or the size of your firm...you will get value out of this book.
It's a fast read and would be great to share ... Read More
